See the Bite in the Dark. Put the Power on Big Catfish.
When your best catfish bite happens after sunset, watching a rod disappear into the darkness shouldn't be part of the game. The Catfish Pro Black Dragon Fire Spinning Glow Rod gives night anglers a glowing rod that's easier to monitor while soaking bait from the bank or boat, with three power options for matching everything from lighter presentations to serious heavyweight catfish rigs.

Real-World Performance
Set several rods along the bank after dark, cast fresh bait into a channel or deeper hole, and let the Black Dragon Fire make the waiting easier to watch. Instead of losing the rod against a dark shoreline, the glowing blank gives you a visible reference as you monitor for movement—then the spinning setup is ready when a fish loads the rod.
Make the Night Bite Easier to Watch
Put a Black Dragon Fire in your after-dark catfish lineup when you want to spend less time staring into the darkness and more time watching for the next rod to load up.
